“Class and Comfort”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 12 February 2012 via mobile

Pinehurst is a wonderful location for a conference. When you arrive, it is like you are taken back in time as - when men were gentlemen and chivalry still existed. All the staff at Pinehurst treat you like you are a guest in their home. These people are humble, honest, and hard-working. I have stayed all over the world from the Excelsior in Rome to the Mandarin in Hong Kong and have never had such service with sincerity. The accomodations are superior! Very clean and up-to-date! The food is out of this world! You must try the biscuits and gravey at breakfast and the Pinehurst Sundae at dinner for dessert! In addition, the spa is relaxing and a treat after 4o'clock tea in the lobby! I have stayed here three times and always had an excellent experience!

“Wonderful Conference Experience”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 11 February 2012

I recently visited Pinehurst and stayed at The Holly. It was amazing. The room was charming and quaint. The staff was absolutely wonderful. They went above and beyond to make my party feel welcome. The service was quick and easy. We had breakfast and dinner at The Carolina dining room and the food and service were impeccable. I will definitely be returning.

“Every day is good at Pinehurst!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 2 February 2012

True Southern hospitality at a resort that reflects the very spirit and mystique of the game of golf. Its a great place to hold a meeting or get together even if you are not there for golf, and you can always count on the facilities, service, and food to be fantastic. The grounds are well maintained and of course the golf courses speak for themselves. Master course designer Donald Ross would still be proud of this place. If you stay take the time to walk the halls and look at the pictures! Finally, I would not want to fail to mention the folks who work there. They are friendly and genuine in all they do to look after you as their guest. They are why I took the time to write this.

Room Tip: Ask the desk folks they can give advice like a good caddy!

“Peaceful Pinehurst”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 30 January 2012

My family spent the weekend at The Carolina-Pinehurst Resort this past weekend. My son was participating a two day golf tournament. We had a wonderful time. The staff was gracious and helpful. We had an issue with a barking service dog, so we were moved to a wonderful suite. This is the place for golf, what beautiful courses, even in January! I took advantage of the spa and had the Signature Massage...heaven. The breakfast buffet is delicous and the piano player added a nice touch. We are planning a return trip in March.

“A Business Retreat”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 30 January 2012

We recently had a retreat at The Carolina-Pinehurst and the staff could not have been any more helpful or friendly. We arrived after 6, and were greeted by every employee we met. Check in was quick and easy. We went up to our room and it was very nice. There were two beds, with very top like linens. The bath was large and well appointed. The only negative was the shower. In order to turn it on, a woman would need to step in to the shower to reach the controls (on the wall behind the stationary glass panel.). This was a minor inconvenience. There was no coffee maker in the room, but there was free coffee in the dining room off the lobby.

The meeting rooms were nicely outfitted, and beverages and snacks were provided throughout the day. Everyone bent over backwards to make the visit memorable.

There is a small village a few blocks away with shopping and various dining options. We ate offsite as well as onsite and all of it was well prepared.

Room Tip: The 4th floor was lovely with a view of the pool.
